🏆 The Emirates FA Cup - 2025/2026 soon

When the goal was becoming too much everything about the game became boring because it was a one sided game where Manchester City unleashed their anger just to keep scoring goals without stopping in the game. There is no better way to say Manchester City was better in the game cause the team they played against wasn't expecting a win as City dominated and started scoring very early, the opponent had no chance to put pressure in the game because City squad was too big for their march, the 10:1 is a good result for the opponent because they were able to score goal to cancel the zero that was initially in their name.

We are not supposed to be surprised about the results they got in that game because Exeter city F.C is a league one team and a team that's still at the 14 position of the league one table securing 30 points in 24 games against Manchester city, a second placed Epl team with 43 points in 21 games. The team is very unmatched but that's the beauty of FA cup. But what I'm yet to understand is how Erling Haaland was not able to register a goal in the 10 goal rump having only one shot in 45 minutes, I think it's a huge blow on him as a top striker. I expected him to have at least a hatrick in the game. Semenyo debuted very well. I think with semenyo in that Manchester city team now, most of their goals will no longer come from Haaland as he is a top finisher.

Pep Guardiola is a master planner and never expected this semenyo's move but he sealed it already. Manchester city would go on to lift the FA cup with this reinforcement they've got.

Szobozslai's goal was fantastic. It was clear from Liverpool's first goal that it would be a good win, and it was.
There were other great goals in the match, it's hard to decide which was the best. Despite an 11-match unbeaten run, Liverpool have drawn five games and some matches have been really boring.
Xabi Alonso has been sacked, and I think this will put more pressure on Arne Slot, and it should. A lot of money has been spent on this squad, they need to get better results.

United crashing out at this stage is good for them especially because they don't have a manager and need to rebuild the team with whoever will be incharge, already with the absence of Ahmad and Mbeumo has really exposed how weak the team is and needs something done about it like yesterday!!!
Otherwise great round of games and teams ready to move to the next round gave their best... Was impressed with the 10goals scored by City they were the biggest scores of the weekend.. weekend well spent  

At the moment, it seems it's okay to say that nothing good can come out of Manchester United. I've seen big teams underperform but still pick up their pieces on the long run but it seems like the club who used to be revered by many especially European football fans aren't getting better anytime soon. Disappointing performance from them today against Brighton and I honestly do not think that it was because of the absence of Bryan Mbuemo and Amad Diallo that they lost that game.

I guess I'm not the only one saying at this point, it is tiring to watch Manchester United play on the pitch lately as a club which used to make alot for opponents nervous even before the kick off time but now fans go into matches already managing their expectations and not even expecting any serious outcome from the games they play these days. A lot of things are just wrong with the Manchester United team and it cuts across all the leagues include the Emirates league.

Xabi's current lack of a club should, in my opinion, pose a threat to Arne Slot. Because as a Liverpool legend, if a vacancy arises in the Liverpool managerial staff, he would be one of the strongest candidates. I don't think he played badly at Real Madrid. He managed the team quite well, especially at the start of the season. Defensively, due to injuries and other unpredictable problems, they sometimes fell behind Barcelona, ​​but I don't think that was enough reason to let him go. Real Madrid may have made a mistake by letting him go. However, this could create an opportunity for Liverpool in the future.

Looking at Liverpool's recent performances, they seem to have overcome their difficult period and are gradually improving. In this respect, it looks like Slot will remain in charge of the team for a while longer.

[Jostern]

As expected, the favorable betting options are over and handicap, I'm considering this combo, do you think Liverpool can score more than 5 goals?

They scored four; maybe they would have scored more if they had had real attacking options and not had to start the game with a makeshift with Gakpo.

I imagine in this game that Liverpool in that game struggled to win the game and maybe even had a draw. I think Arne Slot would have been added to the list of recently sacked coaches. Maybe the recently found form of Wirtz and the return of Hugo Ekitike can help Slot save his job.

Liverpool played a good game, The games was interesting to watch, it was a masterpiece goal from Dominik Szobozlai, he personally had a good performance in the game, but when he caused that blunder it was a nervy moment for the team and they have to hang on to get another goal, the mistake goal from Dominik Szobozlai was just a motivation for this Barnsley team, I think the introduction of Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike was the difference in the game, they both scored and assisted themselves in the game, and I was very happy that Frimpong could also score because he has had a very bad spell with injuries, it was very good to see him happy and scoring a goal, I must say that I’m absolutely unimpressed with Cody Gakpo his been very terrible with his performances and I’m wondering if he is really good enough to be playing for Liverpool, he was in the field for 90 minutes and it seems like he wasn’t there at all, Time will tell what would be his fate in the Liverpool squad.

Xabi Alonso exit from Real Madrid is going to be having pressure on Arne Slot because he fails to bring stability in Liverpool performance, this is going to be problem for him in upcoming matches, in last 11 games they have 6 wins 5 draws, these are decent results still not acceptable for top team which is defending title.

Xabi Alonso was doing good job at Bernabéu, but sadly players were not happy and then things gone on his opposite side still he is having enough skills to stay with any top team like Liverpool with Arne Slot needs to be having improved performance. Here I have to agree, Real Madrid management done this decision in hurry, and they have to be paying price for this, but this could be good for Xabi Alonso because he can go ahead in his future with good clubs few already have spots open for him.

I don't see how Xavi Alonso sack will pose a threat to Slot in Liverpool what you should know is that, Liverpool is not like any other team that likes to be firing their managers . Liverpool is more concerned about a long term project rather than bothering themselves with getting a quick results. As far as am concerned Slot is doing a great job his quality is something that, is not to be doubted because he has proven himself.


The fans are the once trying to bring up unnecessary pressure and talk like this. Slot has a contract going on and until his contract run out nobody should be thinking about his sack. This Liverpool team we are all complaining about bad performance this season was the best team last season under this same manager the fact is that all of the Liverpool team is not doing great.

Even if there was Manchester City, is not all the match you will think is not going to be boring and with Exeter city Manchester City would want to be the only club with the highest score in a match on FA Cup and they have become the first. Today is very different from Exeter city boring play as you can never see Newcastle United ever get people bored from excessive conceiving and this is almost 40 minutes and neither of them have scored but based on Manchester city squad, as always they get to hold the ball more from Newcastle United but is nothing without a goal.

It is really sad how Manchester united has deteriorated that bad, before now, Manchester United has got nothing doing below top 5 on the table, but nownit even feels like they are doing well finding them around top 5. I do not watch Manchester United games with expectations because I know most often  they will not meet up with the expectations, so of at all I just watch the game to entertain myself.

Liverpool is becoming a joke, no offence. Their results are poor even if they won big in the last match against Barnsley in the FA Cup. The players are clearly not fully ready for the game, they are lacking concentration, they obviously did newbie mistakes that could cost them a serious game another time..
The players are angry on each others because of these mistakes. Giving a silly pass to your opponent to score, running without shoes, what's next?
I am not saying that the coach should be changed. No. Yet he has a lot to do to optimise his squad and results.

Many fans lost hope a long time ago. I still dont know why you are just realizing how poor Manchester United is. They are not the only team that lost their players to the AFCON competition. Sunderland had about 6 players who left for AFCON, yet they were able to get a draw against Manchester City at their home. It is tiring hearing excuses from most Manchester United fans about Amad Diallo and Mbuemo as the cause of their loss against Brighton. The only time I will be supporting Manchester United is when they face Manchester City soon.

Liverpool team stats was good against Barnsley football team because their shots were more in this match and these were 19 and 7 shots were on target and possession percentage of that team was also brilliant in this match which was at top and 75 percent gave good strength to his team. The passes of both teams were zero which was not good for both teams. That team did 4 goals in this match which was advantage of that team because they did back to back 4 goals in this match and tried to make match one sided in which they became successful. The shots of Barnsley football team were less in this match and these were 9 and 3 shots were on target.

I feel mostly for the club supporters, for how long Manchester United has been ridiculed in the major league, there is no faith in them, they happen to win once in a blood moon, the majority of gamblers don't see the need to add whichever Manchester United game as part of their parley, particularly in a straight win pick.

This was just a total display of pure quality goals. A sighting of what's coming. Most especially this two duel "Wirtz and Ekitike" they might probably become the real deal for Liverpool in future. I had never seen someone made a mistake that actually cost the entire team a goal from the opposing team and still ended up become the man of the match, getting a rating of 9 or higher on every evaluation. It was unbelievable!
Frimpong has been such a spectacular player which probably has been seen as a flop. From my observation, he has provided his teammates with many assists and also in this match. I don't understand the reason behind him being so underrated. Looks like wirtz is starting to be more and more threatening.

At least, Manchester United was able to shock the world yesterday by winning City with two goals on a clean sheet. I think Carrick has the right tactics for the team because their performance was outstanding in that game.

I believe that during the passage of time, United will get a coach that will liberate the team because no condition is permanent and change is a constant thing. I hope we'll see more quality performance from the red devils.

We have new round of FA Cup starting today, and that is why Premier League is postponed this weekend.
Call me crazy but I think Hull City have some chance against Chelsea, and this could be one surprise of this round.
Chelsea is out of European competitions so they are big favorites to win.
Interesting matches to watch are Aston Villa vs Newcastle, and Liverpool vs Brighton.

[Abbatty]

It another weekend and this time around it not the premier league we will be watching but the FA Cup, this is more like a round of 16. 2 games will be played today and the one that have the biggest attention is Chelsea playing against Hull city away from home, This is a team the new Chelsea coach Liam Rosenair have played for, in this game today Chelsea have a big chance of getting to the next phase, for me I expect total dominance from Chelsea today.

Hull city on the other hand have a huge advantage as they would be playing at home, so having a thousands fans behind them today should be a plus for them. As a gambler I don’t have to think twice to give Chelsea the win today, I expect them to win and get to the next round of the FA Cup.

Chelsea is out of European competitions so they are big favorites to win.

More than half an hour has passed and the score is still 0-0. Chelsea actually are playing with the ball significantly which is no surprise but Hull City also don't have any problem with shooting.

I still don't think Chelsea will be eliminated despite Rosenior's rotation preference. There are still quite skilled players in the lineup to bring the win home. If I were in Rosenior's place I would do my best to win the FA Cup as well. It is the only realistic trophy chance now.

Chelsea missed out on 2 clear opportunities to get ahead earlier in the game with Delap's miss the most annoying, thinking he's scored a goal and not playing it in immediately despite not hearing the referee whistle confirming it as a goal.

P.Neto delivered the opener in the 40th minute. Like you said Chelsea needs to win this match by all possible means. Rosenir has a point to prove back in Hull City today and this cup would really make sense if Chelsea stays the the competition cos I don't think we've got more of options.

It is true that top teams don't care a lot about side competitions and might not be as serious as in Premier League or european competitions, yet for a team that has only this tournament to compete for then they will try to not miss that opportunity.
Hull City although sitting among the top teams in Championship, they remain weaker than Chelsea and their performance wasn't impressive at all..
Aston Villa and Newcastle will br an interesting match tomorrow. There is also Liverpool and bright.
